A query.

I pose a question to you all...

Should I run the Boston Marathon?

I'm pretty sure that I can handle it. I've been running 5-6 days a week for 7 months now. I'm in the best shape of my life. I'm now running around 7-8 miles a night at a pretty brisk pace, not to mention I'm running at 5,280 feet above sea level. The Boston Marathon is in April and I could easily ramp up my training schedule to include some pretty intense workouts.

So, what do you think? If I do it will you guys all be there to cheer me on?

Traci : I might hand you a beer while you run, but I guess I would go to shout/laugh at you.

;)

Anonymous : do it, cause if you make it its "cool", and if you fail, we can give you shit about it..win win situation

Anonymous : do it... but don't count on beer from me. You get ice cold Orloff Vodka. Yep, 5 bucks for a half gallon of ice cold, clear refreshing goodness. Of course it would be evenly distributed into small, easy to drink, Poland Spring water bottles. You'll never know what hit you.

Anonymous : David Scott.....Yoooooooooou Know you want to run with me! C'mon I need someone to talk to for 26.2 miles! I'm just pissed at you for taking so long to think about it! DO IT!!!!! SACK IT UP!

Anonymous : PS-there's no whinning about your knees. I've run 4 marathons with bum knees, bronchitis, severe dehydration, puking up my life and internal bleeding...so NO WHINNING AMIRAULT! Grow a set. :-) that was said with love.

~kimma

Anonymous : Do it! Awesome.

Ask Jason. If the man says yes, then yes.

Anonymous : I think you should do it Dave. I would do it just to say I did it.

Anonymous : Dave, I'll bandage your blisters, re-hydrate you with HEALTHY liquids and tuck you into your old comfy bed if you do it. If you're really a "runner" it's the only way to prove it.......
Love, T-Unit

Mike : I suggest that you go ahead and run the marathon IF and only IF you intend to win the mother fucker. Only then will your Kenyan tendancies be forever etched in time.

But in all honesty, I believe it will only be appropriate if you"ran" the marathon on a segway.

Anonymous : "Jesus, I like how you guys plan on murdering me while I attempt to run 26.2 miles. Damn."

Come on now. You of all people should know that if it's worth doing, it's worth doing drunk.

I can't believe I just said that.

Traci : And I can't believe Dave's mom actually signs things as "T-unit".

I think instead of handing you booze, I'll just toss some ice cold 151 on you to cool you off...and make your eyes sting so you can't see the finish line.

traci

Anonymous : uhhh first of all, I'm obsessed that mrs. digital signs her name "T-Unit" (is that really her?!) also, dave you should run to prove to us that you're actually a runner! (not that we doubt you) it would also be fun for us to drink drink drink while you run run run

Anonymous : Go for it, man. I'll be on the side of the street, either upright and cheering loudly because I'm wasted, or laying in the gutter motionless because I'm wasted.

Partying in San Francisco

Saturday, November 11, 2006 > Trackback URL

San Francisco was great, that isn't breaking news. MMP regulars know that I had a great time, hell, how can you have a bad time when you're hanging out with skiing's top athletes. Here are some of the pictures from the Icer Air VIP pre-event party.

Don't expect any ground-breaking updates this weekend, I'll be at Breckenridge.

Me posing in front of the event red carpet / photo wallpaper area.

Jeard flashes blue steel in front of the red carpet / photo wallpaper area.

Simon Dumont and I each ponder the existance of Big League Chew.

Having some photos with above average looking broads.

Corey Vanular and I have a photo while Josh Bibby looks arkward in the background.

TJ Schiller, Peter Olenick and Corey Vanular. This picture is too thug.

Jay Michelfelder keeps his pimp hand(s) strong.

I'm coming home, again.

Friday, November 10, 2006 > Trackback URL

That's right, I'll be home for Thanksgiving. Not only will I be home to stuff my face, I've managed to parlay this into a 6 day vacation back to the motherland, mostly due to the fact that flights were $500+ if I came home closer to the holiday. So without further adieu, here is my travel schedule.

Arriving in Boston on Tuesday, November 21st, 9:30 AM
Departing from Boston on Monday, November 27th, 9:30 PM

I plan on hitting up Sunday River for one day while I'm home, so if any of you want to go skiing please let me know. And now I have enough JetBlue points to come home for Christmas for free. Money.

JetBlue: The official airline of MMP.

Dave Amirault : Lots of days available, so let me know what your plans are and what days you're working on. We should go skiing, I'll bring my gear home.

Anonymous : If you're still in Boston Tuesday evening I'd be up for a beer after work. Definitely meet up at SR. I'll be headed up Friday night.

Dave Amirault : I like that attitude. Amanda, we need to hang out for at least 2 days. Seriously.

Anonymous : Let me know what day you go to Sunday River.

Anonymous : DAVE, we definately have to hit up Sunday River. Let me know when your going and i'll be there! I'm done with school on tuesday of that week. We'll have to hang out! I might be getting picked up by fischer!! Well call me when ur bored. - heather

Traci : As long as we get drunk together either Friday or Saturday night, I'll be a happy camper. No can do on Sunday - work in the morning on Monday. Boooo.

Dave Amirault : We've got plenty of time!

San Francisco at night.

Wednesday, November 08, 2006 > Trackback URL

I wasn't just partying at night in San Franciso. Here are some images I shot while roaming around San Francisco during my stay for the 2006 Icer Air. Click to enlarge, natch.

I'll post some event photos from the event tomorrow.

Anonymous : Great job on your blog. Great pics too!

Anonymous : great shots dude..

Dave Amirault : Thanks guys, glad you like. I've got some more, maybe I'll post them up when I get a second.

Dave Amirault : Those babies were shot on my 350D (RebelXT) with my 70-300, 18-55 and Michelfelder's baller ass piece of 300 mil glass.

Dave Amirault : Yeah, he just switched to Canon!

Dave's Wallet vs. San Francisco

> Trackback URL

Fact: Drinking in San Francisco is expensive.
To counteract the average cost of a mixed drink ($12 +tip) I decided to procure myself a flask of Jack Daniels and bring it everywhere I went. Not only was it helpful on the way to the bars and clubs but when I rolled into the Icer pre-party at the W hotel, it was an open bar event however there were hundreds of people there and only 3-4 bartenders. Whoever planned that event needs to re-learn math because 3-4 bartenders for 250+ people is totally bush league. Lines were long for the free booze so I just broke out the flask and started my own litle mini party with some pro skiers and industry people while we waited in the line for our drinks. By the time we got to the front of the line we were already saused up and made the best of the shitty line situation. So, packing a few of these babies per night ended up paying off for not only me, but for my company. So instead of needing to buy a massive amount of watered down $12 drinks I only had to get a couple, because I was already rocked by Jack Daniels. So, in closing, take that San Francisco and your overpriced alcohol.

Anonymous : Since you're such a stick you probably got messed up from that tiny flask of Jack.

Anonymous : I bet guys that bring their own flasks to bars pick up tons of chicks...when is the last time you got laid west of the CT River?

Dave Amirault : Well, thanks my actions I can now afford to take someone out on a date instead of spending $100+ at the bar in San Francisco.

Anonymous : dave, i can't wait.

Dave Amirault : For what?

Anonymous : for that date, of course!

Yep, I could live here.

San Francisco is really nice. While it isn't the largest city, it does make up for it by having the 2nd largest population density in the United States and one of the nicest downtown and waterfront areas around. The city is beautiful, the ocean is right there and the topography is kickass.

Things that aren't rad about San Francisco.

There are homeless people everywhere. They should do what New York did, put them on an old cruise ship and float them out to sea never to be heard from ever again.
It costs lots of money. San Francisco felt like New York in the way that every time I looekd into my wallet it was empty.
Rain and Fog. No thanks. I'm from a place right now where it rains less than 20 times a year. In the 4 days that I was in San Francisco it rained 3 times and it was foggy every single day.
Earthquakes: I'm from the East. The ground does not move back home and something tells me that I'd never quite get used to the fact that I could wake up in the middle of the night with my bedroom shaking like a Mexican space shuttle.

If you can only find 4 things wrong with a place you'd like to move to then you're in pretty good shape. I enjoy the notion of living in the city, going to work and then going surfing when I get home... Now if only I knew how to surf.

Caption: Yes, I know I look like this photo is torn out of page 42 of the J.Crew catalog. Go screw.

Caption: Here is the view without some preppy kid blocking it all up.

Anonymous : My cousin and her husband moved from San Fransisco to Maine because they couldn't afford to live there even with 2 incomes...

Dave Amirault : Jesus, that is rough. I can understand that. Even if I had a great paying job in that city I would somehow be broke as a joke. I'll stay in Boulder for a while before I venture out there.

Anonymous : My cousin lives in San Fran. He manages 2 restaurants out, there making 6 figures, and gets by in a 2 bedroom apartment above one of the restaurants. Unless there is a Johnny Mosely Mad Trix effect out there, I'll be moving to someplace that snows.

Anonymous : Speaking of homeless; did you see the 6+ crack deals going on between the Mission Street and Mezzanine?

Anonymous : Lame...cost of living is all relative...4hrs from Tahoe...10 minutes from world class surfing and mountain biking...can get your rocks off on any activity you want here...

Dave Amirault : Josh, dude the homeless people were everywhere. Can't the police just go on a murderous homeless spree or something?

I think I'll stay here in Boudler for a little while longer. We have 300 days of sunshine and can get to the mountains quicker. And from what I hear, our snow is better than Tahoe.

Dave Amirault : Or the homeless wackos that come up to you, grab your arm and scream "GIVE ME MONEY!!!!". I thew the homeless guy to the ground. It is one thing to ask for money, it is another thing to grab my arm and scream at me.

In San Francisco

Thursday, November 02, 2006 > Trackback URL

Ok, I'm here in San Francisco. Sure, the city is beautiful, has a dense population base (2nd in the US) and more culture than you can shake a stick at. But what I want to know is... WHEN WILL IT STOP RAINING!

I was talking with my cousin Ryan today and he said that right now San Francisco is in it's "rainy season". Pardon me, why in the hell would anyone want to live in a place that has a "rainy season". Rain sucks.

If it gets nice out tomorrow I think I'll go out hunting for the Full House location or maybe hop one of those trolly cars and re-enact a Rice-A-Roni commercial.

Austin : My favorite NS response to Icer..

"Does that haterade come in any more flavors? "

Hahaha..

Anonymous : dude that picture looks like the begining of Full House...

Dave Amirault : Jeff Jeff, it is the beginning to Full House. Ha.
